FOD highlighted by FSS

Flight Services and Systems hosted its First Annual FOD Awareness Day on June 14 in an effort to increase awareness over the subject and to discuss and promote the safety topic of FOD.  Each of its stations that has a ramp operation participated in the FOD Awareness Day.

In the event, all of the stations discussed FOD with their teams throughout the day; in fact, FOD was the safety topic for the pre-flight safety huddles and for each safety briefing. Every FSS Station Leader also hosted an open discussion on the topic of FOD to ensure that each of the company’s employees fully understood a number of points, including what to do in the event of locating FOD and whether a report needs to be filed.
